Birthdays!!
So yesterday was my birthday! Such a different birthday from last year! Last year was just miserable.

Thanksgiving Coma
So, Thanksgiving totally messed me up. Well, okay – I was already a little messed up. The day before Thanksgiving, I hit blank wall. I stared at the words in front of me – and couldn’t think of anything to write. I think part of the problem is that the family is on their wayContinueContinue reading “Thanksgiving Coma”
